Clinical Implementation Manager | LCSW @ Optum
January 18, 2026, Jennifer worked with Peggy but on different teams
I had the pleasure of partnering closely with Peggy while serving as the Clinical Manager for the AbleTo Academy. She was an exceptional collaborator and leader throughout our work together. We partnered on several impactful initiatives, including the development of a DBT overview training that was successfully accredited for continuing education units, an effort that required strong cross-functional coordination, attention to detail, and thoughtful instructional design. Peggy consistently brought clarity, structure, and momentum to our shared projects.
Peggy is a strong leader who fosters collaboration and communicates effectively across teams. She is highly organized, reliable, and consistently follows through, keeping projects on track and moving forward in a timely way. Beyond her technical and leadership skills, she is simply a great partner to work with, thoughtful, responsive, and invested in high-quality outcomes. I would gladly work with Peggy again and recommend her without hesitation.

I had the privilege of working under Peggy, and it was truly an exceptional experience. Peggy led by example, fostering a culture of trust and collaboration rather than micromanagement. She empowered our team with autonomy while always providing unwavering support when needed. If we needed her, she had our back and led by example.
Beyond her outstanding leadership, Peggy is a highly talented instructional designer. I learned so much from her expertise in creating impactful learning experiences, and she generously shared her knowledge to help others grow. One of the most valuable lessons I gained was the art of cross-functional consulting as well as how to handle difficult SMEs. Just watching her navigate diverse teams and stakeholders with ease taught me how to build strong partnerships across the organization.
Her positivity and inclusive approach made every interaction enjoyable and motivating. Decisions were collaborative, and every team member felt valued. Peggy is not just a manager but a true leader who inspires growth and confidence. Any organization would be fortunate to have her, and I can speak for everyone when I say she added a personal Peggy flair to every meeting- even remote, she can light up a room!

Working alongside Peggy was always a great experience, especially during our collaborations on shared, large-scale projects. When it comes to continuing education, she is truly an expert. She has a real gift for taking huge, complex training needs and transforming them into clear, executable project roadmaps. I consistently saw her in action, demonstrating exceptional leadership by managing the most intricate aspects of our initiatives and ensuring every deliverable was grounded in smart design—and always delivered on time.
Peggy is the kind of leader who inspires confidence. She not only manages complex initiatives brilliantly but also cares deeply about her team, expertly guiding her instructional design group through intense development cycles. And on a personal note, I have to mention her fantastic, grounded sense of humor. It’s truly her signature, and it’s a superpower! She knows exactly how to break the tension and make a busy day feel lighter, which is such a gift to any collaborator. Any team would be lucky to have her blend of sharp intellect, impact, and genuine human warmth.

I have worked with Peggy on a university team for about 3 years. She always has an eye out for easier or new ways to do things, investigates the ideas, and then shares them with the team. Peggy is ready and willing to answer questions and help out teammates. Similarly, she is also open to asking for assistance. I appreciate her critical thinking and will miss her on the team as she moves into being a Lead.
Joe Hemmerling - Director of Instructional Design at Keypath Education
August 26, 2015, Joe managed Peggy directly
I have worked with Peggy at Pearson Embanet for four years, both as a fellow ID and as her manager, and I am continually impressed with her ability to work with faculty and her willingness to contribute to the larger team as a whole. Peggy’s personable but professional communication style allows her to establish strong working relationships with even the most challenging subject matter experts and to help them create quality finished courses. Furthermore, her interest in personal growth and development pushes her to find ways to go beyond her role and help out her team members. Peggy has been an important voice in shaping the new hire mentor program, in designing team-building activities for the social committee, and in driving initiatives on her university teams as a Lead in Training. I’m very pleased to have Peggy as part of my team!

I have worked very closely with Peggy for close to 3 years and have been thrilled with her creativity and work ethic. I was the lead instructional designer working with George Washington University and Peggy was a leader on my team. She consistently goes above and beyond to create solid instructional design for the program. Her solid work ethic serves as a model to inspire other ID's on the team. Peggy also takes a leading role on our larger team, pushing to help other members of the team to receive mentorship and to take part in socialization activities. Peggy is a true leader and hard worker who brings value to any team she works with.

I had the pleasure of working with Peggy on the topics of statistics, survey development, and organizational behavior during our study at the Chicago School of Professional Psychology. Peggy was always an active participant in group projects who was never afraid to interject with a new idea or direction. She is well spoken and passionate about the topic of I/O Psychology and I hope I have the opportunity to work with her in the future.

When working with Peggy I have always felt that getting a project done in a timely and efficient manner was a top priority for her. Out of all the times I was lucky enough to be in a group with her she showed tremendous leadership abilities and offered innovative, creative ways of completing a project. As a close personal friend of Peggy's I am able to say that she is a pleasure to be around and is a very intelligent person who will go far as a member of society.

Peggy worked in our office as a training intern. In her role, she completed a study on our orientation program and benefits to our organization. Peggy is articulate, organized and able to bring a project to fruition in a timely manner. She is able to work well on her own, but also asks for appropriate feedback to ensure the project meets expectations. I enjoyed working with Peggy and believe she would be a strong asset to any team.

“Excellent rapport with faculty: Peggy established a trusting relationship with her instructors. Everyone seemed very comfortable and actually enjoyed themselves on the call. Control over call: Despite issues with [FACULTY NAME OMITTED] showing up late and having some internet connectivity issues, Peggy managed to steer the call in useful directions. Sending out the screenshare link was a good way to keep everyone on the same page, and Peggy had specific action items to discuss that she was able to resolve on the call. Follow-up: Peggy sent a summary follow-up email recapping the call and asking for specific next steps.”
– Manager feedback post development call observation (2014)
“I wanted to make a comment concerning my class with [FACULTY NAME OMITTED] on Moodle. This class was wonderful regarding the layout and general flow. I had a death within my family and still feel content with all I have learned throughout my course studies, not feeling overwhelmed or not understanding the content. I am so happy with this class and with the instructor. I wish all virtual classes would take note of [FACULTY NAME OMITTED] layout.”
